La guía del diseño en México. Galerías de diseño

[Music] I 'm Ana Elena Mallet, a curator specializing in design, and I'll be taking you to the studios of prominent designers to explore the state of six disciplines of energetic design. Today we'll talk about galleries, etc. [Music] The world of design is being shaped by different links, from schools and publications to festivals and design galleries, which are, in a

It's a neighborhood with great architecture from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. There are great gastronomic offerings, architecture studios, designers, and

artists. We're going to visit Angulos, one of the pioneering design galleries. Montserrat Castañón, the director, was committed to developing a design market and promoting a group of designers she firmly believes in.

[Music] If anyone, I'm Montserrat Castañón, I'm 33 years old, and I'm designing because I wanted to. I 'm working as a museographer [Music]. I'm working with a woman named Cristina Grajales, who is a very important design gallerist in the US. She's Colombian but has been in New York for about 30 years, and her gallery is just...

I started thinking about how I could express intersection, and in one of those searches, I came across angles, because ultimately an angle is the union of two vertices at a point, and angle

zero is when the two vertices are together. So for me, it meant perfect, like that union of art and design. The truth is, we're a very small team, we have a lot of work. I 'm the creative director, so I'm the one who chooses which artists, which designers, which pieces, which exhibitions, which
